Is any truth in this II is contrary to what know
TO De the spirit OF the municipal and commercial
bodies which have invited me there, and which 1
believe to be the spirit OF the whole people of ST.
Louis. They certainly are animated by the most
hOSpltable intent toward their September visitors

courteous host can do to make the stay OF the
Grand Army delegates as memorable and as pleas
ant an occasion as possible. l believe that they
would omit 10 do anything which would interfere

New Tangled Democracy.

The Express contained a significant
and suggestive editorial, which ought
not to be suffered to 90 unanswered. 1t
objected to, and sharply criticised the
action OF the seventeen citizens, who re-
Gently signed the call for holding prima-
ries, because those gentlemen only paid
taxes on about 5000 OF property. Is the
patriotism and Intelligence Of men to be
guaged and measured by the amount Of
property on which they pay taxes That
seems to have been what the Express
meant; II such was not Its meaning, then
Its article was without either point or
purpose. Have not poor men . right,
under the constitution and laws, to vote
and to hold Office, and such being the
case, have they not right to call pub
lie meetingsP Most assuredly.
1t has really come to a pretty pass, II
none except large taxpayers can call
public meetings and manifest an inter-
est in elections. Plutocracy has no
more patriotism than poverty has. Gilt
edged politics will hardly sweep the
country for many years to come.
l insist that 1t is undemocratic to
maintain, that none but large tax-pay-
ers have right to call public meetings
and primaries to consider what num-
SiPoi Pohoy oushe w W ouoPtOo
during the next two years. The
laws bear on the poor as we'll a.
the rich. Rich and poor are equal under
the law. Every voter has q right to
give expression to his views respecting
pubic questions-suoh right is incident
to the right Of suffrage, and the amount
Of property on which he pays taxes 10
foreign to the matter.
The rich by no means enjoy monop-
oily Of patriotism and intelligence. Many
poor men are both patriotic and intelli-
gent, and fully qualified to handle and
discuss public questions.
Does the Express mean to debar small
taxpayers from the privilege OF taking
part In public meetings and to vest In
large taxpayers the exclusive right Of
shaping and deciding municipal ques-
tionsP Men, that own no taxable prop.
erty, are frequently Intelligent and pa
triotic. yet If 1t be presumption 10 small
tax payers to evinoe an interest In pub
lie affairs, non-tax-payers would fare
still worse and would be treated as po-
litical poems.
enter my protest against this new
tangled theory Of gilt-edged politics,
brouched by the Express, and shall OPP
pose 1t with all my energies and the
stubborness that comes Of strong oon-
viction. An aristooracy founded on
riches alone has nothing to commend 1t
to favor, In a republican government.
Equality under the law is the birth right
Of every citizen. II. T.

or course, San Antonio wants all these
good things, and she needs them mighty
badly. Enterprising citizens have cried
out for them for years, but In vain. Now
they are within the grasp OF the citi-
zens. Will they let it slip from them
because they are asked to invest In what
will bring them good dividend and make
the city prosperousP They have done
so before, and now they see the effect OF
their suicidal policy. Ii is human to
make mistakes. but Ii Is criminal folly
to repeat them. II the citizens will only
cooperate together and work for the
common good, sacrificing q little In the
present for the profits Of the future,

career Of prosperity, and will enjoy a
